6/23/2021 7/26/2021 We hope that USDA APHIS would share these records for the state of California, Texas, 

South Carolina, and Flor da from the year 2000 to 2020 with us. 1. Sentinel surveys 

among commercial and residential citrus growers APHIS conducted sentinel surveys 

among commercial and residential citrus groves every 60 to 90 days in Florida. This data 

would allow us to identify Citrus Canker prevalence in Florida. If possible, we would like 

to obtain the raw data from every sentinel survey. 2. Records of physical removal or 

pruning of infected trees According to the Statew de Plant Pest Prevention and 

Management Program Environmental Impact Report and The Asian Citrus Psyll d & 

Huanglongbing, when Citrus Greening is present, growers often eradicate the trees. 

Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) officials are allocated to oversee removal methods 

to ensure the disease does not cross quarantine boundaries. If possible, we would like to 

obtain records of when and where the trees were removed when Citrus Greening or 

Citrus Canker was present. 3. Records of chemical treatments According to The Asian 

Citrus Psyll d & Huanglongbing, CDFA - Plant Health - Asian Citrus Psyllid and 

Huanglongbing - Notice of Treatment and Proclamat on of an Emergency Program, and 

ACP Effective Insectic des - Asian Citrus Psyll d Distribut on and Management, APHIS 

must be involved in the application of insecticides, fungicides, or pest c des that involve 

chemicals. The chem cals being used have to be labeled and approved by APHIS under 

The Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). If the chemical is not in 

the approved database, treatment can not happen until it has been subm tted for review 

and approval. If possible, we would like to obtain records of when and where chemicals 

were used to control Citrus Greening and Citrus Canker. In add tion, which chemicals 

were used, and what is the application type (foliar, soil, mating disruption, etc.). 4. 

Records of natural enemy introduction According to Identif cat on and Management of 

Citrus Greening Disease in Texas and Asian Citrus Psyll d and Huanglongbing Disease 

Management Guidelines--UC IPM, certain predators such as parasitic wasps and lady 

beetles target Asian Citrus Psyll d (ACP) populat ons and decrease the overall population 

density. If an organism is not native to a reg on, then APHIS must step in and approve 

new species' introduction through an environmental review process. If possible, we 

would like to obtain data on when and where the following procedures were used. 5. 

Records of Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) According to the Statewide Plant Pest 

Prevention and Management Program Environmental Impact Report, SIT encourages the 

sterilization of the pest population through irradiation. Large quantities of sterilized 

insects are bred by exposing them to low doses of radiation. The sterile males are then 

released over targeted pest populations, and when mating occurs, no viable offspring ar
